Life isn't fair. When I was a boy, I did something good, and I was struck blind as a reward. But there are compensations. My other senses were magnified to superhuman levels. I could "see" all around me with a virtual radar. I grew up using those gifts to become lawyer by day and crimebuster by night, all to help balance the scales in an unjust world.
comic / 616 verse: primarily based on and set during daredevil (2011)
mcu verse: canon compliant with daredevil (2015) and daredevil: born again (2025)

GENERAL.Β basic rp etiquette applies: donβt control my muse in any major ways or without talking to me first; donβt assume things about my matt and their characterization; and generally, be nice. any hate sent to my inbox will be promptly ignored and deleted, any hate towards me, my rp partners or characters that i write will mean an immediate unfollow. i don't engage in callout culture and drama in any way (steer right clear of it as a matter of fact). i keep an eye out for more serious things, but overall, i'm here to relax and not get stressed about other people.
ACTIVITY. may be spotty at times as i can go through periods where i don't feel like writing much. i'm always lurking and keeping an eye on my notifications, so even if i haven't posted anything in a while, feel free to shoot me a message.Β
REPLIES, MEMES & THINGS. usually, when i'm around, i like dedicating my time to draft rather than memes, which is why i don't often reblog them. if you're new and just want to break the ice, though, feel free to grab something from the meme tag to send my way as they don't really have an expiration date. usually, when sending or receiving memes, i expect them to be turned into threads, but it's not mandatory.
FOLLOWING. crossovers and ocs are more than welcome, as long as there's an easy way for our characters to interact. i don't have aus for matt just on the ready as i prefer plotting them out with a partner first, so i might not follow you back if i don't see a way for our characters to interact. if you have any ideas, feel free to message me. this blog isΒ duplicate friendly. i love matt in almost every iteration, so i'm always open to interacting with other matt muses, whether it's writing or just exchanging headcanons and such. seriously, i'm not kidding when i say i'm a huge daredevil nerd i love this stupid man so much. additionally, i have a secret mike murdock muse on this blog who would love to annoy his twin brother, i'm just saying.
SHIPPING. yes. but in all seriousness, it's no exaggeration to say i'll ship matt with pretty much anyone. obviously chemistry will always play a role there, but matt is flirty and falls in love very easily. just shoot me a message and we can get talking.
NSFW. i'm very unlikely to write it unless i know the other mun and am comfortable with them, but it may happen once in a blue moon. in that case it'll be tagged accordingly and etc. i'm okay with discussing nsfw headcanons though. let's just not make it 99% of our ooc interactions.
TRIGGERS. i do my best to tag them accordingly. i do read everyone's rules before following and again before interacting, but something may occasionally slip my mind. if you need something tagged and i failed to do so, please send me a message and i'll fix it asap. i don't have any triggers myself. at most a deep hatred of chip zdarsky's daredevil run which will become a full on rant if you ask me about it.Β
CREDITS.Β all icons and graphics seen on this blog are made by me unless stated otherwise. the only exception as of writing this is the psd i use, which was made by jaynedits. any artwork on this blog is not made by me unless stated otherwise. any graphics made with comic book art will be official art from a comic or cover. credit goes to their original artists.
ABOUT THE MUN.Β iβm liam (he/him), iβve been rping on tumblr for 12+ years, most of which has been dedicated to writing matt/dd. iβm a massive daredevil nerd, so if you want a shortcut to being friends, just come yell at me about anything dd related. movie, show, comics, i guarantee iβll match your energy. beyond that, just generally be nice and we can be friends in no time. discord is open for ic and ooc purposes. just shoot me a message if you want my username.

one of my self indulgent and inconsequential "headcanons" is that matt can skateboard
i know that's very t.asm core but hear me out skateboarding is all about overcoming fear and mostly throwing yourself off the same obstacles again and again and not giving up and if that aint matthew in a nutshell
besides, two great points to take into consideration: 1 is that it was literally in the comics and 2 is this dude

"Wait, why are you worried about Clint? The man has no money, a failed marriage, and thinks pretending to be an idiot is some great class act. I'd be more worried if he was mentally better but he's not."
"You do realize that, between you and me, we're not doing much better?"
π³ππ ππππππππ πππ πππ€π π πππππ ππππππππ πππ ππ πππππ² ππππππ, a shadow in the back of his mind. Her heart beats, lub dub, slow and calm, just loud enough for him to hear and draw him to where she sat perched. She did not adorn red, not today. Instead, she came as Elektra the mourner, not the assassin. Tips of boots kiss the lip of the rooftop, dancing between solid ground and freefall. She enjoyed the sensation, enjoyed the feel of the rush of uncertainty, like everything could give way at any moment. It reminded her that she was alive.
β I was waiting patiently for class to be dismissed. β Elektra remains where she stands, still rocking gently back and forth, not wanting to turn to meet his unseeing eyes just yet. β Straight to business like always, Matthew? β
There wasn't a way in hell he could just continue his class while he could hear her looming overheard. A lot had changed over the years, but some things will always stay the sameβ like the way he's drawn to the sound of her heartbeat every time, for better or worse.
"Well, you know how hectic my life can be. Besides, I'd think we're well past small talk," He answers. Truthfully, he's trained to expect the worst when she's around. There aren't many other reasons why Elektra would reach out to him of all people. "Otherwise, we'd be meeting at a coffee shop, not on a roof.

"Oh, you mean the guy you put in jail, doesn't know the fucking system? You mean I don't know what the regular schmuck gets fucked over by the prison industrial complex. Is that enough fancy words for you, college boy!" Frank throws a knife and lands in someone's head.
Thunk!
He keeps shooting and reloading. He's tired of this shit with him. He doesn't want to fucking argue. "You know how many low-level guys you fucking beat to a pulp end back up with the gangs that fucking use them? Medical bills out the ass, Red. They're drowning and these assholes take advantage of it. I'm highly aware that we're feeding a fucking monster that no one can fucking stop. Are you?"
Frank grits his teeth and just starts taking a grenade from his vest, ready to pop it. "I'm getting tired of fighting these assholes. How many are left?"
"Do you think I'm beating up any shmuck I run to to a pulp? Do you think I just throw them all in prison without a second thought, as if they're all the same? I'm not like you, Frank. I actually try to help, even after the mask comes off, which is more than anyone can say about you."
He tries to reach out to the ones that are willing, try get them to turn their lives around, get a lesser sentence. It's not perfect, and it barely works most of the time, but he has to try. It's how the law is supposed to work, and Matt needs to do what he can to steer it int he right direction, especially when Frank insists on just sending them to the morgue. He will scoff and laugh at Matt's so called optimism, but Matt doesn't care. Frank doesn't get it, and Matt doesn't expect him to.
They'll just continue to bicker and argue until one of them is dead.
The last ninja goes down, and Matt goes quiet, trying to listen for any other ones that could be hiding. "I can't hear these guys very well, so keep an eye out. Or they might get the drop on us."
" you've looked worse. " jessica's mouth thins & flattens to smother the smirk curling at one corner. she studies him, looking for any hint ( there are other eyes here, she knows, other ears listening in to their conversation that might suffocate the truth from surfacing ) that he might not be okay.
but he's ... oddly himself.
" yeah, that's your usual. sit on your hands. " a brow purls at that. there are dormant years, no devil of hell's kitchen. but, cyclically, he's back. she knows what it looks like, the prickling itch to do something. so she asks, " no borrowing of some stranger's scarf & playing dress up? "
"Well, who needs a scarf these days anyway?" He shrugs, playing it off, though he'd be lying if he said part of him isn't mourning that. Keeping that secret had been part of his life for so long that it's been difficult to fully wrap his mind around the fact that he doesn't need to hide anymore.
Not to mention the risks that came with it. In here, he's a target, but that doesn't bother him much. At least he could do something about it. Out there was what he was worried aboutβ Karen, Kirsten, even Jess, to some degree. People who were associated with him and could easily become a target, while he couldn't do a thing about it from behind bars. He doubted any of them would appreciate the sentiment, but that didn't stop him from feeling like he'd dropped a bomb on them and then simply left them to deal with it on their own.
"How are things out there anyway?" He asked after a pause. "Is Fisk really gone?"
